    HVAC distinct click from left side only when heat is on when car is cold... was told this is normal?

    I've had the car for over 2 years now (since Nov 2020) and it just started making this noise this year. Seems odd, no?

    HVAC distinct click from left side only when heat is on when car is cold... was told this is normal?

    My HVAC is making a very distinct and intermittent clicking from the driver side. This only happens when it is very cold outside and the heat is on. Brought it in for service - they were unable to replicate it (my hunch is because it's not cold enough out). However they did watch these video and...

    High pitched sound from HVAC, is this something service will address?

    Hey @acarney ! Hope your family is doing ok. Checking in here because I have the same issue, same sound. Only when the heat is on (which I just started using this week). Wanted to revive this post to see if there have been any updates/progress.

    Steering Wheel off center?

    An update: I had a SC appointment today to hopefully get this taken care of once and for all. When I arrived, I had a tech drive with me (again...) to understand what I was experiencing. The car then went in for an alignment (again...). The attached image shows the before and after. What was...

    Steering Wheel off center?

    That's the same info one of the technicians told me. To which I said "well then the wheel is not straight when you lock it." And he told me they use a level to make sure it is. Clearly that's either a) wrong, b) a lie, or c) their machine is broken (in my situation).

    Steering Wheel off center?

    That's where this all started... with a paid alignment. 😆 I'm unwilling to pay another $200 or whatever it is to 'fix' something that was caused by them.

    Steering Wheel off center?

    Funny enough, one of the techs that rode with me jokingly (?) offered that as an option. But then when we got back to the SC, I was tole they would not be performing any additional work on it without me paying, which I'm unwilling to do since their 'aligning' of the wheels caused this issue in...

    Steering Wheel off center?

    I’ll also mention that the steering wheel was aligned before getting a wheel alignment from the SC (had the tires balanced after getting new ones and that messed up the alignment which is why they performed it initially). The “new tires aren’t so new anymore and have ~3k miles on them.

    Steering Wheel off center?

    Dealing with the same issue. They have done 2 alignments, and claim everything is fine and the wheel is straight. I've ridden in the car with techs and they tell me the steering wheel is straight when it is clearly not. They try to make excuses that with the road crowning it's never going to be...

    Replacing screen protector

    My screen protector got a chip on the edge on it. I’m wanting to replace it, so I gave it a little pull to see how easy/hard it might come off. As I started to pull, it began to crack (see pic below). My question: Is there a best practice to removing a screen protector to minimize risk of...

    Michelin CrossClimate 2 finally coming to Model Y size

    This is exactly what I would've thought.

    Michelin CrossClimate 2 finally coming to Model Y size

    Fantastic tip! I pumped them up to 44psi this morning and there is a noticeable difference in the ride smoothness. Hopefully this is the quick and easy fix I'm hoping for. Hoping as much as I can to not feel like I need to honor the guarantee and trade them in for something else (would likely...

    Michelin CrossClimate 2 finally coming to Model Y size

    Update: Went back to the tire place on Saturday and had them perform the alignment and balance again. It seemed to do the trick in terms of fixing the shaking above 70mph. However - not sure I'm pleased with the tires. I was hoping for a softer, more comfortable ride than the Continentals that...

    Chirping/squeaking sound coming from rear when going over bumps/rough road

    I've had the car since Nov 2020. And I've taken it to service, and they said they were unable to replicate, unfortunately, so naturally they didn't do anything about it.

    Michelin CrossClimate 2 finally coming to Model Y size

    Thankful I saw your post. Didn't realize they had a 60-day exchange policy. Just had them installed on my car the other day. They're quite loud. And there's a slight but distinct physical and visible shaking in the steering wheel above 70mph. I called the tire shop that installed them - having...

    Chirping/squeaking sound coming from rear when going over bumps/rough road

    There is a very high pitched chirping/squeaking sounds that seems to be coming from the rear seats (I think passenger side?) that happens when I go over bumps or am on a rough road. It happens frequent enough that it is noticeable, but then of course infrequent enough that the service center was...

    Need 4 new tires - Would these fit/work? Any opinion on these? Michelin Primacy MXM4 All-Season

    What math are you doing for the first part ($0.15/kWh and 275Wh/mi)? Also forgot... add another ~$100 for wheel alignment with the new tires. Also, my exacts are $0.12868/kWh and 292Wh/mi. What would it come out to with this?

    Need 4 new tires - Would these fit/work? Any opinion on these? Michelin Primacy MXM4 All-Season

    By the time I get my tires changed next week, I'll have just about exactly 30,000 miles on them. Total price for the tires (including tax) is $1,326.84. However there is a promotion going on until July 11 where I'll also get a $70 Visa card back as a rebate. The place I found for installation...

    Question about E-Z Pass green tag (NJ)

    Has anyone had success in getting their E-Z Pass green tag (https://www.ezpassnj.com/en/about/plans.shtml)? I sent in my proof about 2 months ago and haven't received anything from them.

    Auto high beam behavior

    I understand that. The question isn't about their behavior when they're enabled, but rather the behavior of enabling them. Sometimes I get in the car, and they are enabled (as desired) without me needing to touch the stalk. Sometimes they are not. This seems to happen randomly.

    Auto high beam behavior

    But then why sometime do I get in the car and they're on?

    Auto high beam behavior

    Yes this is exactly my experience and it's driving me a little batty! Why don't they just stay on?

    Auto high beam behavior

    I have my auto high beam option turned on in the light menu. However, it seems to be random that I get in my car and have the icon showing that they're on actually enabled. Usually when I get in the car during daylight hours, it will show that they're enabled. But then later when I get in the...
